Two day conference on sustaining forests, woodlands, and communities through biomass use
RESTORING THE WEST CONFERENCE 2011
Sustaining Forests, Woodlands,
and Communities Through Biomass Use
October 18 - 19, 2011, Utah State University, Logan, Utah
The 2011 Restoring the West conference will examine how woody biomass harvest can facilitate land restoration projects while supplying much-needed fuel for renewable energy. Talks will focus on how biomass harvest can occur in ways that improve the ecological and financial feasibility of restoration projects.
The conference will have a dual focus on the ecological effects of woody biomass harvest, and the technology of woody biomass harvest and use. Discussions will appeal to land managers and owners, researchers, and business people.
The first day of this year’s conference will feature plenary and poster sessions and the second day will include breakout sessions and a panel discussion. Poster submissions are requested.
